Question Unable to boot to startup settings

[user1765]

I recently reinstalled windows and everything works fine except I can't boot into safe mode. Normal boot works every single time no problem. I do Shift+Restart, Troubleshoot, Advanced options, Startup Settings, Restart. PC restarts straight to a black screen, I have video out so it's not a no signal issue. Don't get a post screen, no option to enter BIOS, just a void. I have latest graphics drivers and bios version .Any solutions?

Do you have any other monitor or TV plugged into GPU?

No I don't, only one monitor via hdmi. Ive checked display settings and it's set to PC screen only.

no option to enter BIOS.

remove CMOS and wait for at least 30 secs then put it back?

So resetting cmos didnt fix it, but I facepalmed so hard when i figured out the solution. For some reason my monitor switched to a different input whenever booting to startup settings. I was thinking down rabbit hole of a corrupted boot partition or boot loader. How do I mark a thread as solved?
